In a sane world, if every candidate but one is mathematically eliminated (which is likely to happen by the end of this month) then the one left standing is the winner.

The rules are the rules. A candidate needs the majority of delegates.

What happens if there are 5 guys in the election and the top has 22% of the vote? Should he automatically get the nomination cause he has more than anyone else, but not a majority?

Great point. You can count on that happening from here on out if the leader isn't "chosen" by the establishment, they will simply nullify the voters.

The establishment is fomenting hatred against the front-runner in order to preserve the status quo.

Next election cycle it will be your guy getting blitz-kreiged.
